    I only weighed in twice this month - I've had very very good days and very very bad days - so a bad result on the scales can tip me into more bad days...

    1/9/11 = 179.4
    10/9/11 = 177.8
    30/9/11 = 174.6

    Total of 4.8 lbs this month. I'm more than happy with that :-) A third of the way to goal now....

    See you all in the October challenge :-D

    Don't look on it from the weekly viewpoint - but from the monthly viewpoint. And you pretty much lost the 5lbs (0.2 lbs does not count as a fail) - so I'd say that's a great result - well done :)

    Final loss for the month:

    1st Sept: 152.1
    8th Sept: 150.6
    15th Sept: 147.9
    22nd September: 146.0
    30th September: 144.8

    ***** Total loss: 7.3lbs *****

    I can't help but be a little disappointed :ohwell: I lost over 10lbs in both July and August and I was hoping for the same again! Oh well, I'm only 4 or 5 pounds away from a healthy BMI now, so I suppose it's to be expected that the loss will slow down.

    Well done everyone with your losses!


    Be proud of that!! Its so hard to lose month after month! Your scale is moving at a nice pace and CONSISTENTLY!

    Sept 4- 175.8
    Sept 9 - 170.8 (yes it looks like I already lost 5, but I was up 8.... lol)
    Sept 16 - 176.4
    Sept 23 - 172.8
    Sept 30 - 172.4

    ** Total loss: 3.4 ***

    Totallllll Disappointment. First because I didnt miss the goal, but ALSO because I am stillllllll heavier than I was. That gain was not a fluke. I have accepted that this is my real weight and I still need to lose consistently. Eat right on a daily basis and work out consistently.

    Here's to a better month in October! Congrats to the Happy Losers this month!!! To those disappointed (like myself, stick with it and set a new goal for October!)

    So weighed in this morning and I'm the same as last week. But I officially lost exactly 5lbs this month.

    SW: 169
    CW: 164

    I can't complain about a 5lb loss.

    Sept 1st SW: 193.8
    Sept 9th 195.8
    Sept 16th 193.6
    Sept 23rd 194.2
    Sept 30th 194.2

    Not my actual weight from this morning, but my sodium was ridiculous yesterday so I know it's not right. Plus I walked/jogged for 90 min yesterday.. achy achy achy.

    Here's hoping for a better October.

    Total loss of 3.8 lbs. I'm not happy with how I did this month. It's such a modest goal that I hate missing it.

    Scale is still at 149. Only 4 days left. My primary objective is not to post a gain, so I have to at least get back to 148 for a maintenance month, and I'd love to get lower just to be able to say there was a loss, however small.

    Final weigh-in today which is my end weight for September and start weight for October: 148 - a maintenance month for me.

    Sorry I missed yesterday's update. My numbers ended up:
    Sept 2: 215.2
    Sept 9: 215.2
    Sept 16: 212.8
    Sept 23: --didn't officially weigh in, but I gained a couple of pounds--
    Sept 30--210.2

    I made a 5 net pound loss exactly (I had to pee twice to get that number, the first time it was 210.4 :laugh: ). September has been my worse and most inconsistent month ever. I started running intervals last week, though, so I am hoping that October will not follow in the same way, though the cooler weather makes me want to get in the kitchen and bake. I fully intend to bake, but it will all be Cooking Light stuff. I will continue on the October challenge and hope I do better. I usually lose 7 lbs per month, which I actually did in September, it's just that I lost, gained, lost. Bah.

    Sep 01: 191.4 lbs
    Sep 09: 192.4 lbs
    Sep 16: 190.6 lbs
    Sep 24: 191.8 lbs
    Sep 30: 194 lbs :grumble:

    I'm SO tired of this! I've been floating between 194 - 187 since April!!!! I'm not giving up. That scale will change for me someday soon. I know the inches are still moving down more. I'm noticing less & less of me in the mirror & in my clothes again!
